When Kaelyn was a baby she was sleeping through the night at around 6 weeks old. Our son on the other hand, was around 10 weeks. Poor little guy struggled with reflux the first few months and couldn't seem to get comfortable...especially at night! We tried several things, but found very little relief for him. At some point we plan to have a third baby and I want to be prepared with ways to make them comfortable if acid reflux is an issue. That's why I was excited to learn more about a great product from Summer Infant.
With the mission of making this 'the best time of your life' and putting their heart and soul into everything they design, Summer Infant is dedicated to bringing parents a large selection of products that are both safe and sensible for little ones. Between their high quality baby products and excellent customer service, they have become a name parents know and trust.

Having used several products from Summer Infant over the years, I am a huge fan of their high quality, innovative products for little ones. That's why I was more than happy when asked to feature their Tummy Comfort Positioning Seat.

Features/Benefits:

• Elevates baby's head to 30 degrees
• Two speed vibration to help soothe baby
• Soft, cushioned seat for baby's comfort and strudy, stable frame.
• Folds for storage or travel
• 5 point harness for safety
• Seat cover is machine washable

When the Tummy Comfort Positioning Seat arrived, I was very eager to check it out.

Upon pulling it out of the box I found there was very little assembly required...yay! When it comes to baby gear, parents don't have a lot of time to mess with a bunch of pieces to put together so this was great!

Following the user-friendly instructions included, I snapped the four feet into place (they were even labeled A & B which helped a lot) and put the two screws in. The seat was ready to go in no time at all!


As I checked it out, I was immediately impressed with the super soft, cushioned seat. Between that and the sturdy frame, the quality is exactly what I would expect from Summer Infant. Once again, they did not disappoint! I love the breathable mesh which helps to prevent overheating too. The cover also slips off and is machine washable which is a must when it comes to any baby product in my opinion.

Safety is also very important, and something I have found is a priority of Summer Infant as well. I was happy to see that there is a 5 point harness system to keep baby safe and secure when in the seat. The straps are adjustable so you can find the perfect, secure and comfortable fit for your little one.

The feet have a rubberized bottom on them which is another safety feature I appreciate. This ensures that the Tummy Comfort Positioning Seat doesn't move around when the baby is in it.

Although this Tummy Comfort Positioning Seat looks, and can be used much like an infant bouncer seat, it's actually much more than that! It is unique in that it was specifically designed for babies with acid reflux. I only wish that I had something like this for Kaden when he was younger (and am happy that I will have it for future babies just in case they struggle with the same thing). I did not find anything like this on the market at the time and am happy that Summer Infant has thought of it. It certainly can be used by any baby as a bouncer seat, however...its one of a kind design gently elevates your little one at the recommended 30 degree angle for optimal comfort after or during feedings which makes it absolutely perfect for babies with acid reflux.


To help sooth little ones even more, there's a vibration feature to help baby relax. Both my kids always enjoyed sitting in a seat that vibrated. I think this is a terrific addition to an already well-thought out infant seat with many benefits for little ones. The vibration unit requires 3 AA batteries (not included). I really appreciate that the unit has an auto-shut off feature too. It will shut off after 20 minutes to conserve battery power which is great...especially since parents go through many batteries with baby gear those first few months.

The size of this seat is made to accommodate babies birth to 4 months (or until baby can roll over). I personally think this is perfect, as it's the first few months that babies often struggle with acid reflux and getting comfortable after feedings the most.

I honestly think Summer Infant has thought of everything to make this a great seat to keep babies comfortable after and during feedings. It's also convenient for parents and super easy to use. Setting it up takes no time at all..simply push the lock buttons on each side and extend the support leg to use. You can hear it click to know it has locked which I really like.

And, closing it is just as simple. All you do is push the support leg back, push in the lock buttons and fold it up. I was very impressed with how small and compact it folds up too. I remember wishing there was a way to keep Kaden comfortable when we were away from home, and know the portability of this product would have been perfect. It folds nicely for easy travel when going to a motel, Grandma and Grandpa's house, etc. It is also a nice size for storing too.

I have been very impressed with the Tummy Comfort Positioning Seat. The quality is great, and I love that so much thought went into making it a great infant seat for babies with acid reflux. I am so happy to have it for when we have more children and would highly recommend it to parents with little ones who struggle with acid reflux. Not only will it make them more comfortable, but it will give you peace of mind.
